The Cambridge Handbook of Forensic Psychology

The Cambridge Handbook of Forensic Psychology, 2nd Edition, outlines foundational theoretical perspectives, assessment methods, and interventions across the discipline. This handbook reflects how forensic psychology has expanded beyond traditional criminal justice settings into fields such as social work and education, while maintaining relevance for researchers and policy makers.

The volume examines major categories of criminal offending alongside emerging areas of research, including cybercrime. The chapters address theoretical frameworks while exploring practical strategies for assessment and intervention.

An international team of contributors emphasizes diversity by cross-referencing findings across adult, adolescent, and child populations. The text serves as a comprehensive resource for academics and practitioners in forensic psychology and allied disciplines.
